Selecting an LED Wall Based on Your Needs
When it comes to choosing an LED Wall, it’s a decision of utmost significance, requiring careful consideration of several factors It is important to consider the purpose of the screen, its intended location (indoors or outdoors), the viewing distance, and other crucial details. Throughout the article, we’ll delve into these aspects to help you make an informed choice when venturing into this type of technology.
Step One: Buy or Rent Your LED Screen
A critical decision revolves around the type of use your LED Screen Panels will serve. To make this determination, you need to assess precisely how you intend to use the screen.
Some potential applications include:
- Business or corporate events such as exhibitions, fairs and conferences.
- Musical shows, concerts: LED walls from 12 to 26 feet with a wall mounting installation appropriate for viewing at long distances are required.
- Religious ceremonies: Whether in temples, churches, weddings, baptisms, and religious services.
- Broadcasting of institutional videos: At medical institutions, corporations, companies, schools.
- Online advertising: In shops, shopping centers, companies, including billboards.
- Video surveillance and monitoring: For monitoring rooms in access control, sites, processes, and security. Also used in airports, land transport terminals, sea ports, and large commercial areas.
- Film or Video Projection: For both closed-rooms and outdoors settings.
- Sports events: They can be used during games to project each play in real-time.
The acquisition of an LED Wall represents a substantial, long-term investment. Given the frequency of use, you may consider the option of renting this equipment instead of making an outright purchase.
Consider the Placement and Installation Type
Once you’ve determined the purpose of your LED Wall, you can decide where it should be installed and the type of installation required. Here are some possibilities:
- Outdoor Installation: the panels have IP65 certification, which makes them resistant to dust, rain, and adverse weather conditions.
- Indoor Installation: These screens are more cost-effective, with energy savings and technology optimized for indoor environments.
Depending on where it will be installed, the screen size may also vary. This is defined in conjunction with the location, proportion and distance of the audience.
Additionally, the type of installation can vary:
- Wall Installation: Similar to mounting home televisions, these setups use a metal structure affixed to the wall to arrange the LED display panels into a video wall. The configuration can take various forms, including squares, rectangles, and specific shapes like a large L, cross, or panels with spaces between them.
- Installation with a Standing Frame: Similar to wall installations, these setups employ a kickstand to support the structure. Unlike the wall applications, these can be easily relocated to the desired location.
- Height Installation: This type involves a tall metal structure from which panels are hung, creating a large wall of screens. Due to their large size, they usually remain fixed, although they can be moved by disassembling their structure, albeit at an additional cost. They are often square or rectangular and are widely used in large stages for recitals, events, even places of worship.
Choosing the Right Control System
Whether you decide to buy or rent an LED Wall, understanding the control systems available in the market is crucial for comparison. Novastar is the world’s leading brand of control electronics, and all Led Market packages include these drivers.
It is also important to differentiate between asynchronous and synchronous control systems.
- Asynchronous LED System: This system works essentially the same way as flash drive media players. That is, by storing the material on the receiving card you can see the previously modified versions. Regardless of whether the computer is on or has problems, the images will be displayed on the screen once the card has the information. Once the card has the information, the images will be displayed on the screen, irrespective of whether the computer is on or experiences issues. This system is ideal for situations where information repetition and playback time are not critical, such as billboards.
- Synchronous LED System: In contrast, the synchronous control system is fully synchronized with the computer and other devices. If the computer experiences any shutdown or malfunction, the LED display will follow suit. It requires monitoring the computer monitor’s 60 frames per second using point-to-point mapping. This system is employed in high-demand events such as live concerts, conferences, and television stations, where real-time content playback is paramount.
The Significance of Size & Pixel Pitch in LED Wall Selection
In an LED Wall, each individual LED is a pixel. The pixel pitch number indicates the distance between the LEDs on the wall (in millimeters). The recommendation is to have panels that ensure the minimum distance that a viewer must be to see the image without undesired effects. This factor holds immense importance when deciding to purchase or rent this technology.
Pixel pitch options for LED Walls include:
- LED panel with a pixel pitch distribution of 1.9mm and a size of 640x480x75mm; With a minimum viewing distance of 5 feet, it offers a brightness of up to 800 Nits and consumes up to 140W per panel.
- LED panel with a pixel pitch distribution of 2.6mm and a size of 500x500x75mm; With a minimum viewing distance of 6 feet, it offers a brightness of up to 1500 Nits and consumes up to 100W per panel.
- LED panel with a pixel pitch distribution of 2.9mm and a size of 500x500x75mm; With a minimum viewing distance of 6 feet, it offers a brightness of up to 1500 Nits and consumes up to 100W per panel.
- LED panel with a pixel pitch distribution of 3.9mm and a size of 500x500x75mm; With a minimum viewing distance of 8 feet, it offers a brightness of up to 1500 Nits and consumes up to 120W per panel.
- LED panel with a 5mm pixel pitch distribution and a size of 960x960x80mm; With a minimum viewing distance of 5 meters, it offers a brightness of up to 3,500 Nits and consumes up to 425W per panel.
- LED panel with a pixel pitch distribution of 3.9mm and a size of 500x500x75mm; With a minimum viewing distance of 8 feet, it offers a brightness of up to 4500 Nits and consumes up to 260W per panel.
- LED panel with a 5mm pixel pitch distribution and a size of 960 x 960 x 80mm; With a minimum viewing distance of 16 feet, it offers a brightness of up to 5500 Nits and consumes up to 425W per panel.
